Summary

What the bill does

This bill would ban noncitizens from voting in District of Columbia elections, including for local offices and ballot measures. It would also cancel a 2022 D.C. law that allowed noncitizen residents to vote in local elections.

Why it matters

The stakes

The bill affects who can vote in D.C. local elections. Supporters say only citizens should vote, while critics argue it takes away voting rights from legal residents who pay taxes and live in the city.

The debate

What each side says

Supporters
  • Voting is a right of citizenship, and allowing noncitizens to vote dilutes the votes of citizens.bill
  • The 2022 D.C. law was a local decision that conflicts with federal policy on voting rights.report
Critics
  • Noncitizen residents, such as green card holders, pay taxes and contribute to the community, so they should have a say in local elections.report
  • The bill overrides the will of D.C. voters and its elected council, interfering with local self-government.report
